He attended for 3 years the New Hellenic Theater of Yiorgos Armenis, a Drama School, studying modern and ancient theater, dance, music, cinema, improvisation, speech training and other practices. After graduation, he worked as an actor in several shows at the theater, while acting in TV commercials as well as in a TV series. He also acted in many short movies, and took secondary roles in featured films. He shot his first short film together with a friend in 2010, and enjoying so much this new experience, he decided to go to Italy, to Rome in order to study cinema in the Academy of Film and Television “ACT Multimedia”.
Giannis says:

“I think I cannot do any other thing in life; I express myself through acting in theater and with a camera on a film set. My purpose is to narrate stories, to wake up evokes, consciences, to entertain and to touch the hearts of people. I feel good about this, and I want to make all my dreams come true.”
